All right, here we go! QUIET!! ROLL 'EM!!
[Dexter recording the sound. But Lina's voice can't pick up the mike]
Oh, Pierre! You shouldn't have come!
She's gotta talk into the mike. I can't pick it up.
CUT!!
What's the matter, Dexter?
It's Lina! Look, Lina, don't you remember? I told you. There's a microphone right there in the bush.
Yeah.
You have to talk into it.
I was talking. Wasn't I, Mrs. Dinsmore?
Yes, my dear. But please remember, round tones. "Pierre, you shouldn't have come!"
"Pierre, you shouldn't have come!"
Yes, yes, my dear. That's much better.
Hold it a second! Now, Lina, look. Here's the mike, right here in the bush.
Yeah!
Now you talk towards it. The sound goes through the cable to the box. A man records it on a big record in wax. But, you have to talk into the mike first. In the bush! Now, try it again.
Gee, this is dumb.
She'll get it, Dexter. Lina, don't worry. We're all a little nervous on the first day. Everything's gonna be okay. Oh, Roscoe! You know the scene where I say, "Imperious princess of the night?" I don't like those lines there. Is it okay if I say what I always do? "I love you, I love you, I love you!"
Sure. Anyway, it's comfortable. BUT, INTO THE BUSH!! Okay, again! QUIET!! ROLL 'EM!!
[Dexter recording the sound. But Lina's voice keeps turning her head around that they're missing words]
Oh, Pierre, you shouldn't have come! You're flirting with danger. You'll surely find you out.
CUT!! Lina, you're missing every other word. You've got to talk into the mike!
Well, I can't make love to a bush!
Alright, alright! We'll have to think of something else.
